As experts warn of a looming famine due to Israel's blocking of all aid for over ten weeks, Al Majalla speaks to affected families on the ground whose children have become skin and bones

Taha Muhammad Ali felt the lifelong pain of displacement after Israeli forces took control of his beloved village in 1948. A pared-back one-man show of his life leaves the audience thinking of Gaza.
There are competing visions for Gaza, from a 'riviera' without Palestinians to a rebuilt enclave run by Palestinians for Palestinians. Until then, thousands are still being killed.
Uncle Zezo, Uncle Mickey, and Dr Alloush perform in displacement shelters and hospitals, striving to restore fragments of a joy last felt in 2023. Al Majalla meets them.
